IPv6 configuration for tomcat 6

Hi,
   How do we configure tomcat on IPv6 machine? What changes need to be done?
What are the exact changes in server.xml file? (where and in which format
the ipv6 ip should be specified?)

we are using tomcat 6.0.18

Thanks,
Tomcat user !

I have put the ipv6 address in two places in server.xml. Those are:

<Membership className="org.apache.catalina.tribes.membership.McastService"
                                address="228.0.0.8"
                                bind="fc00:10:112:107:0:0:0:236"
                            port="45564"
                            frequency="500"
                            dropTime="3000"/>

                            <Receiver
className="org.apache.catalina.tribes.transport.nio.NioReceiver"
                            address="fc00:10:112:107:0:0:0:236"
                            port="4200"
                            autoBind="100"
                            selectorTimeout="5000"
                            maxThreads="6"/>




exception that i am getting is:
Apr 3, 2009 11:32:34 AM org.apache.catalina.tribes.transport.ReceiverBase
bind

I tried putting ipv6 address in square brackets also... but it did not work

Any help will be appreciated..
